Book a flight with Emirates and get Travel Insurance included.

[Gjk7777]

Just going to book a flight with Emirates and apparantly you get automatic Covid Insurance, has anyone entered Thailand and had this insurance and it's been accepted? The cover is for $500,000, which exceeds the requirements of $100,000 to enter Thailand. Thanks in advance.

Worked for us! Just email the underwriter in the UK and they will send you a copy of the policy. Takes 3 days.

I believe this is the email address. Attach a copy of your flight.

some consulates (as I remember canada) said that they won't accept it for ceo. Let's see, if there would be anything in thailandpass rules.

But others entered without problems.

Some say they know people who successfully claimed.

This policy ends in may 2022, can also be cancelled at anytime by the insurer.

As I remember they cover only up to 30 days after flight. So not enough for long term visas and for extensions - unless you trick ceo by getting departure airfare from thailand within those 30 days. But it's a game. 

I will also fly with them, but the only reason is that they are the most reliable airline, with many daily connections from my airports and neighbouring airports as a back up.

I will ask for a letter from them to submit to thailandpass, but I will also buy 1 year covid plan for 15k, to cover me through 1 year extension. This 1 year plan validates only after 14 days,

It covers you for the length of your stay. Mine is 15 days. Wink, wink. I don't need insurance with my visa. Never have.

It covers up to a year if that's when you've got your return booked for on the same ticket.

Yeah. But the difference in price was significant. A short return was MUCH cheaper.
